Patient's question:
I would like to ask about the genetic issues of polydactyly and syndactyly.Doctor's answer:
Hello, polydactyly is a chromosomal disease, and many of them are related to genetics. Polydactyly (polydactyly) is an autosomal (not a sex chromosome) dominant inheritance, and the inheritance probability depends on the parents' genes. This can be checked in the hospital. Genetic testing can be done for both men and women before pregnancy, or during pregnancy.Suggest: Webbed fingers, also known as syndactyly, are two or more fingers (toes) completely fused together. Webbed fingers are the same as polydactyly, both being autosomal dominant genetic diseases.
